Screen Printing Induction and Map making

We began our research in Leeds corn exchange. As soon as i got there
there where loads of dogs just walking around without owners. This entertained me and was the starting point to my research. I attempted to draw all of the dogs of the corn exchange but they where all fast movers so they where all done fairly quickly and rushed.
I also drew a basic birds eye map of the floor lay out and walked around drawing dots for every foot step i did.
I thought this could be a good starting point for a map.

We then headed to Kirkgate market which is always full of life.
I tested how loveable i am by using the love tester and got a successful 7/10 ( sensuous) which was pretty accurate.
I was very intrigued by all the market stall people shouting different phrases to attract my attention.
I even got offered drugs by someone who should probably be in school which was a first for me at Kirkgate.
These where all interesting points for our map.

This happy fellow was drawn by a lovely member of Leeds Armoury she drew me and i think she did a pretty great job of it to as she made me look like Harry Styles which was nice of her.

I finished my trip in the Leeds armouries where i went through and looked at some of the textures from the weapons and the building.
I also did a wrong handed drawing of this man in a boat which came out looking like Donald Trump.

This is a developed version of some of the drawings of my trip before they where combined with my groups to make this map.
I wanted my drawings to have a nice texture to them as i was interested to see what these would be like screen printed.

This is the final outcome. We decided to map out Kirkgate market as this was a place that each of us had indervidual events happen to us. We began by mapping it out as an overview of it with all the squares and then placing each of our illustrations on the map where the event took place. I drew the love machine market stall man and dog which where all elements of my trip and experience in the market which i enjoyed the most.
The process of screen printing was ver enjoyable I think the controlled aspect of it makes your images seem relatively clean and organised even when they may not be. I also love the overlaying of colours that's possible with screen printing.
our choice of green and red worked nicely without looking too festive.
I also enjoyed the process of working with a group especially when it comes to ideas. it was less important for the process of making it.
